The City Hospital:-

Minutes and seconds passed by. The sky turned dark as the night slipped in faster than expected. The corridors of the hospital were devoid of any sound. Doctors retired to their rooms while staff took a timely look at each patient.

Outside the special ward, Kiara was pacing in the gallery, waiting for the nurse to come out. The latter was there with a doctor who came up to check on Aaron. Thick frown lines on Kiara’s forehead expressed the deep tension filling in her nerves. She chewed her lips, waiting for the closed door of the room to open. A minute later, the medical officer came out with his assistant and walked straight to the elevator, asking the nurse to explain the condition to the patient’s attendee.

“How long are they going to take, sister?” She impatiently asked the nurse as soon as the doctor was out of the scene.

“Miss Jones, as you already know, a transplant usually takes more than ten hours, so it will be anyway longer than that. For now, we need to

    “What?” Kiara shrieked as if a live wire touched her. Her eyes popped out of shock looking at Leo, who himself was standing with raised eyebrows. The coincidence was too realistic to be true.‘Miss Jones here!?’ He said in his mind.Meanwhile, Kiara’s gaze went to Rachel’s hands, which were wrapped around Leo’s waist, and she felt like crying at her fate. Out of all the men in the whole Elegant City, only he — the man who happens to be her estranged husband’s security head and also a very close friend — has to be the boyfriend of her best friend.There goes her plan to stay miles apart from Viaan. She cried internally!What a dramatic destiny she has! The truth and the people she was running away from were making back-to-back appearances in her life.Great! Just great!“He… He is your boyfriend?” She asked again, as if someone would answer differently the same question a second time. She still etched disbelief on her face, but the look of the whine was more prominent in there.Rachel

    “Yeah. I need some rest.” The girl replied positively, avoiding any further possibility of having another conversation with her husband’s bodyguard.Rachel looked at her with concern, then nodded, allowing Leo to leave.“I’ll see you tomorrow.” He hugged her before walking to the door.Rachel accompanied him by the threshold. The man turned back, taking his girl again in his strong arms. A sigh left Rachel’s lips as she felt him wrapping her in his warm embrace. She, too, hugged him tightly and complained once again.“I didn’t even get to talk to you properly.” Her lips formed another pout, making her man chuckled. She smiled when his chest vibrated at the action.“And whose fault is that, sweetheart? I’ve offered you to go to my place tonight, but you refused,” Leo said, breaking the hug.“You already know the reason.”“Yes. And that’s why I came. Now let it go. We’ll meet again tomorrow.” He said, taking her lips into a quick kiss.With a flushed face, Rachel then waved a bye at him

    “Can I ask you something?” Kiara hesitatingly looked at Rachel. This thing was troubling her since the time Leo had left.Her reluctant behavior surely surprised Rachel. “Obviously, Kia, you don’t have to take my permission to ask me anything.” She took the pillow from Kiara’s hands and kept it down on the bed. “Tell me, what is it?”Licking her lips, Kiara put forth her curiosity. “Did you… did you share Aaron’s health issues with your boyfriend?” She was skeptical, looking at her friend in anticipation. “I mean, does he know everything about me?” She rephrased her words, recollecting her conversation with Leo.Rachel furrowed her eyebrows, nodding her head in no. “No, why would I share your personnel problems with him?”“No, I mean you guys looked quite close… I thought…”“Kia, no!” Rachel cut her words before the girl could even complete it. Holding her hands in a warm grasp, Rachel put a full stop to Kiara’s turmoil. “I accept we are close… quite close, as you say, but that doesn’

    “Will you still be uninterested if I tell you that friend is none other than Miss Jones…” Leo knew what effect his words were having on Viaan. Biting his lower lip mischievously, he trailed just behind him, murmuring the last but powerful words. “… or Mrs. Adams, more precisely!”With a playful smirk on his lips, he watched Viaan going stiff in his position. The man wasn’t ready for this. Leo, on the other hand, rolled his tongue inside his mouth and awaited his reaction.On cue, Viaan turned around the very next moment, grunting at him. “You are enjoying this, huh?” Those amber eyes glared at the man who dared to bring up the topic again. “Rubbing the marriage thing on my face?” His eyes were intense enough to bore a hole in Leo’s skull.However, this couldn’t do much more damage than scaring the poor fellow. Which was again a futile attempt, since Leo already knew what he was doing and how long he should play with the fire.“I just asked you a question. Neither did I rub any topic,

    ‘In life, we face certain turns that never have an immediate effect. Initially, it looks cruel. The pain we suffer appears forced. But in the end, when it all comes to a full circle, those random changes and abrupt turns make sense. And then you realize why it all happened.’ Kiara felt a tug in her heart reciting those words in the book she was currently reading. A wave of agony passed through her blank eyes.The sudden marriage, her abandonment, her arrival in this city, and all that had happened since that particular night flashed in front of her mind. She heaved a breath, clutching the book.The following evening, Kiara wrapped up her work and soon boarded a public bus to reach the hospital. Earlier this evening, she received a call from Sister Mary reporting her on Aaron’s complex surgery that was ongoing since 9:30 in the morning. She wanted to come during the lunch break, but Mary stopped her. She advised it was better for her to come when she is not in a rush to go back.Thus,

    “What? Maa? Are you sure?” Viaan thinned his brows in disbelief. Intense bewilderment“Hundred percent sure. I even confirmed by calling her driver.” Leo replied in a confident tone, “He was just in the parking at that time.” confirming the news.Viaan couldn’t help but get more confused. “But what would Maa do there? Had she needed to go to the hospital, she would have called me or gone to uncle James’ hospital.” He murmured, picking up his phone to call Leena.“Exactly. Ma’am would have gone to Dr. James’ hospital if she needed to see a doctor. This means she was not there to see a doctor but to visit someone.” Leo said while Viaan rang up his mother’s cell phone.Impatiently, he tapped his fingers on the table, straining his eyes with the constant movement of his eyeballs.The ring went completely unattended on the first call. Frustrated, he called again, raking his fingers through his hair this time.“Damn! She ain’t receiving.” He pulled the phone down from his ear.“Boss, calm d

    “What the —” Kiara shrieked. Reflexively, her hand raised to push the person.“Woah, calm down pretty lady. It’s just me!” Hunter held her wrist, preventing himself from the push. It was him standing with a surprised smile on his face, wondering at Kiara’s action. That was justified, though.Kia squeezed her hand into a loose fist, as her mind registered his voice, tagging it familiar. In an instant, her eyes widened, looking at the man in front of her. “Hunter!” She kept a hand on her heart, heaving a scared breath as she closed her eyes for some seconds. “Gosh! You scared me!” The racing heart slowly came back to normal. Her haywire mind, just before he came, pushed all the thoughts behind, making her forget the stress.The man bowed dramatically, leaving her hand. “My apologies, my lady. That was never my intention.” He took the seat next to Kia, grinning like the full moon.“Who comes like that?” She snapped at him like a cute little girl complaining about her spilled chocolate. T

    8:30 pm, Adams Villa:-“Keep her on the medication; she’d be fine in a maximum of one week.” Dr. James said, keeping his stethoscope back in its box. Next. he threw the packet of used injection in the dustbin and closed his bag; all set to leave.“You sure it is just cold and nothing else? She is still unconscious!” Viaan murmured in a hurried tone, glancing at James with worried eyes. He sat near Leena’s head, taking her hand in his. Tears dried on his cheeks while he still sniffed, kissing her hands from time to time. James knew what emotional trauma he went through just in a span of one hour.“Yes, it’s cold. But for your relief, I’ll run a few tests on her when her temperature reduces. Till then, these medicines will help her gain her immunity back.” James assured, then ran a soft hand through Viaan’s hair, patting his head. “I understand your fears, Viaan, but don’t worry, it has nothing to do with her prevailing ailment. Just take good care of her as she will take at least 10-12

Now give me my thing back!” He said over the call.“I am impressed with your quickness, Mr. Moore.” a masculine heavy voice was heard from the other side. “I thought you would still take a few more days. But no. You proved why this is priceless to you. Excellent, old man.” With a dark chuckle, the man added. The words were more like a mocking of Mr. Moore’s efforts, and that made the elderly man clench his fingers.Mr. Moore’s entire body shook with rage. At that moment, he wanted nothing but to thrash everything around. To get the man in a chokehold and punch him straight across the face for making him dance on his fingers. However, the helplessness of the situation had him holding from behind. He can’t act repulsive. Not at this stage when he is so close to the one thing that he has been finding for sever

    Viaan’s POV:-I helped Maa get down from the car, supporting her gently as she stepped onto the gravel path. As soon as her eyes fell on the scene in front of us, she froze. Her fingers tightened around my palm, clutching mine with a grip that spoke volumes.“Viaan, this…” She began, her voice trailing off as disbelief washed over her.Not believing what she saw, she was struggling to find the right set of words. Her lips wobbled putting an impromptu pause. She looked back at me, her gaze searching for confirmation, her body trembling slightly.That was my cue to confirm her doubts.With pride and emotions lacing my own voice, I squeezed her shoulders and nodded. “Paradis d’Amour, Maa. Our dream.” I announced, taking my mother in a half hug from sideways, holding onto her as tightly as I could.She averted her gaze back to the property.

    Writer’s POV:-“Where are you taking us, Viaan? At least tell me now.” Leena asked for the nth time, getting annoyed at her son’s silence over the matter.Viaan, like the previous times, smiled mischievously and answered without looking back. “Patience, Maa, patience. You’ll come to know soon.”Leena scoffed audibly, narrowing her eyes at her son’s mischief, and scolded him lightly. “That ‘soon’ of yours has not come since the last three and a half hours of our journey. How long more would you keep it a secret?” Her eyes wrinkled at the corners while her nose flared in annoyance.Her anger didn’t seem to affect Viaan a bit as the man chuckled loudly. “As I said, it is a surprise, Maa. I’m not telling you to spoil the fun already.” He refused to reveal, making his mother smack his arms from the backseat.“You have become too naughty these days.” She said through her gritted teeth, only to get a burst of hearty laughter from her son.Huffing, she crossed her hands across her chest and s

His dull face was uplifted with the pure essence of their support throughout his life.“You —” Ryan started to speak, but then his eyes narrowed as he studied Viaan’s features more closely. “Were you crying, Viaan?” His eyes scanned Viaan’s face with concern.On cue, Leo also took a closer look. “Yeah, you look off!” He exclaimed, pointing out the obvious signs of distress.Viaan stilled. His smile dropped into a thin line. Immediately, he averted his eyes away from them and looked everywhere around.How come Ryan observed that? His shoulders tensed once again.“No. Why would I cry?” He chuckled nervously shrugging his shoulders, not wanting them to read his face further.“Then why are your eyes red and moist?” Ryan scoffed, narrowing his eyes. “Don’t lie through your teeth

Last night, I had to lie to Kia and Maa as I had spent entire hours in planning for the surprise for Maa. Then this morning the leftover documentation took my time while I also went to check for last-minute preparations. I just happened to come here one hour ago as I can’t go directly to home. And as soon as I came here, the first thing I did was to call Maa. She deserves the surprise the most.All through this while, I also kept myself reassured that this was not a dream anymore but a reality.A beautiful reality.A certain kind of peace filled my heart. I felt the cores of my eyes moistening up. Our dream was finally completed.“Paradis d’Amour is finally ours, Papa. I completed your and Maa’s dreams.” My voice choked with emotions as I looked at the picture frame on my desk while placing the keys reverently b

    Writer’s POV:-“Did Viaan tell when will he come?” Leena asked Kiara who was serving her breakfast.Her hands stopped in the air and she raised her head to her mother-in-law. “No, Maa. He had just dropped the text last night that he wouldn’t be coming home tonight as he had an urgent meeting and some important work. So, he is perhaps staying at the penthouse itself.” Kiara sighed, continuing to fill Leena’s plate.Leena nodded recalling the text Kiara showed her last night. Viaan had specifically mentioned to tell Leena about it, he himself didn’t text her thinking she must be asleep by then.It was around eleven in the morning. Both the ladies were having a late breakfast today, as Kiara was nauseous and not feeling good this morning; thus she had delayed her meal.Although Leena had something light earlier as she had to have medicines as well, she still joined Kiara in the late meal.It was Leena’s assistance that she was even eating, lest she was all ready to ditch the breakfast to

    Writer’s POV:-“And the man said that Mr. Adams is ready to meet at the earliest possible date,” Daniel revealed, sounding serious and firm.Hunter sat straight with a jerk, his brows dipping in. “How come he agreed this early? Didn’t he and his lawyer want time?” The question triggered his mind, he inquired in a disbelieving tone.The frown went deeper on his face; his eyeballs moving constantly as he tried to figure out Viaan’s step. One thing was crystal clear neither Viaan nor his lawyer saw this proposal as a simple invitation to get rid of legal troubles. Hence it was very much acceptable for his rival to seek time to agree or even deny.That’s why, even when this frustrated Hunter, he was ready for any secret investigation Viaan did on him. But little did he expect, that his acceptance would come this early and fast.He heard Daniel huffing from the other end and came out of his thoughts. “I have no idea, Sir. But if they are ready then why not proceed? This was the plan after

    Writer’s POV:-“Kia, calm down. Ryan said that he won’t reveal anything to Viaan.” Sophie tried to calm her down, but the girl was far from calming down.A ready havoc was created in her mind and heart and she had no idea how to deal with it.“But he didn’t even give me any time, Soph. All he allowed me is tonight.” Kiara retorted, holding her breath in apprehension.She can hear her heart pounding in her ears, and sweat beads adorning her temples even after the decreased temperature of AC.Her words followed a silence before Sophie sighed audibly. “You have taken more than you should, Kia. You can’t avoid it any longer. Dr. Ryan was right when he said the more delay you are making the harder it would be to make Viaan understand.” Sophie indirectly quoted Ryan’s words from the last evening.“Out of all people, you should be understanding my dilemma, Soph.” Kiara clicked her tongue, getting annoyed at not finding any solution. “I didn’t wait for Tyler to just wake up, but I needed to k

The words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of the revelation.A revelation that Kiara least expected today.The room fell into a stunned silence. The only thing audible at that moment was the ticking of the clock and the lazy evening wind coming through the open windows of Ryan’s cabin.With a composed face, Ryan watched the two women in front of him, trying hard to digest the truth he just disclosed.He knew this was going to be their reaction once her tells them the truth, but still watching them doing so, made him amused.Did they really think they would keep this massive truth away from him?Did they seriously think he wasn’t going to find it out, ever?
